That store employee was actually quite nice, I wonder why... And now that I'm re-watching this video 13 years since it has been uploaded I realize that there weren't any security cameras in the service corridor, loading dock and freight elevator lobby. How could it have been like this ? Aren't there cameras everywhere nowadays ?

[@Elivayshon]

I'm sure when Andrew slept later he probably heard "PLEASE ALLOW THE DOORS TO CLOSE. PLEASE ALLOW THE DOORS TO CLOSE." I'm just kiddin. Been a long time fan of this channel. Andrew keep up the great work.

[@SROSELLI]

If you decide to revisit this elevator you will notice that the alarm bell was recently removed which I think that at some point that they determined that it was unnecessary to have a bell that loud hooked up to a freight elevator and possibly they received multiple complaints about it going off every time that the elevator is used and it also sounds like the fire alarm going off. Although I don't work at the king of prussia mall but that's what my opinion is on them removing the alarm bell.

I'm quite happy that from all of the elevators I've used, none of them would sound an unnecessary alarm that just sounded like an annoyance. Especially because I have moderate hearing impairment and use hearing aids.

[@DieselDucy]

It is loud.

[@Ih8kone]

This was the sister to the former Abraham & Strauss stores at Short Hills and Willow Grove. Short Hills originally had an Otis (passenger), until it was modded by Schindler. However, the Willow Grove location had a Westinghouse, at least when it was Strawbridge's, because I remember that store when it was Strawbridge's (the Willow Grove location). Hence, this may have originally been a Westinghouse, unless the Westinghouse at the Willow Grove location was installed by Strawbridge's in 1988 when they moved in, which would have made it one of the last Westinghouses ever installed. We may never know for sure, unless we see Pennsylvania elevator records.

That's pretty much what I get recording an elevator by a Simon (or store) employee, or no reaction. Glad it went well, except for the annoyance factor.

The alarm bell on this elevator was removed sometime in 2013 and the phantom voice was removed sometime last year.

[@pacfilming8117]

2012 I believe and its not a alarm bell its a school bell

[@dea41396returns]

@owenhinton yeah, I filmed it, and got stuck in it. It is in the Pavilion (former A&S/Strawbridge's), and is down the corridor between Borders and Eurocraft (former Golfdom) on 2, and between DSW Shoes and Nestology on 1. It is very hard/confusing to access on 3... Like I warned you before, DO NOT take the elevator to the 2nd floor, as you have a 95% chance of getting stuck. I wouldn't start it their either as it could get stuck as it answers your call...

You know what users that said about what company modernized the freight elevator, you're right. Schindler did the modernization. Besides, the door close doesn't work in which is a Schindler issue.

Im still wondering to this day why these freight elevators have the vertical doors instead of the normal ones maybe its so if they have big carts like that lady had and they bang on the doors on accident it doesnt break it

This be an OTIS. I have proof that Short Hills is, also A&S and opened the same year with a similar freight. The only reason that has OTIS doors and this has Courion is that OTIS doors stopped being made that year, sometime between Short Hills and here. you can put OTIS int he title BTW

I'm glad they got rid of that loud bell on floor 1 - but this lift should be modernised as the door close should work

Yeah, and the fact that this elevator often gets stuck on 2 (unknown whether or not that issue has been fixed).

[@ECFE]

That happened once. If it went on for a while it surely would have been fixed by now since tenants use this elevator for merchandise and other things

[@elijahtorres2688]

@@ECFE, if you watched DieselDucy’s video of this elevator, the employee that got in the elevator with him mentioned that the elevator had gotten stuck “many times.” But that was back in 2009. Maybe they did fix it, or maybe not.

Yes I’m aware. But that doesn’t mean it was always on the second floor
